ROMANIA

Romania is one interesting destination for those who are lacking time. You can easily plan a hunt for a weekend, as to get one species you need only 2-3 hunting days. Rifles are available for renting in the hunting areas.
On the way back to Bucharest, you can visit the famous Hunting Museum of Romania and see world record trophies of Carpathian chamois, European red deer, and Wild boar taken before.
If time is available, you can easily combine a hunt in Romania with a hunt in Macedonia for example, getting two chamois subspecies in one trip.
